Even the most callous among the mogu quaver at the thought of the dark experiments performed at the Thunder King’s behest. Long ago, a young cloud serpent was twisted into a multi-headed hydra and left to languish beneath Lei Shen’s throne. Now the twisted creature lurks deep in the Forgotten Depths, awaiting the moment it may finally inflict its terrible agony upon others.

Lead Encounter Designer, Ion “Watcher” Hazzikostas:

The inspiration for this boss fight was the classic hydra that Heracles (Hercules, if you prefer the Roman version for some silly reason) battled in Greek myth—a beast with many heads that regrew two heads in place of each that was severed. That foundation, combined with the concept of three distinct types of heads, resulted in the beast that now awaits players beneath the Thunder King’s lair in patch 5.2.

If you are decently geared in 25-man, I recommend ignoring the Venom head completely, and just going back and forth between killing the Red and Blue heads. This means your raid has very little AOE to heal through, other than the Rampages. Make sure to use CDs on the last Venom head, as it will be doing heavy damage at the end of the fight.

This strategy isn't as viable in 10-man since the frost beams make it much harder to heal tanks when healers have to kite them.

I'm not sure if this is the best place for this tip. I had an experience yesterday,that I hadn't had in the months since the patch dropped. We had made the run to the next boss, Megaera, without taking care of a large number of adds. We had new players entering the instance after dealing with the 1st boss, Tortos. We had also lost 2 members in the party in one of the add fights and they were trying to run back. They kept getting killed by the adds that were not cleared. One by one, different members of the party were being ported to the location where the add fight was taking place. Because we had no tank and no heals, we all kept losing the battle and having to run back. We probably spent 20 minutes trying to get past this point in the run. It will save a lot of frustration and speed things up to just take care of the adds on the way to Megaera.
